ACR06D103KGS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ACR06D103KGS is a 10000 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by KEMET, rated for 100V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient characteristics. This radial through-hole component is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 200°C. The part is currently active in production with 1154 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when application requirements necessitate different electrical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ACR06D103KGS is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant or be compatible with the application circuit:

Fixed Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance value: 10000 pF
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Lead spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 200°C minimum

Variable Parameters (Application-Dependent):

• Voltage rating: May be equal or higher than 100V
• Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0 or X7R acceptable depending on circuit stability requirements
• Physical dimensions: Radial package with compatible lead style

The substitute part ARR07L103KGA maintains identical capacitance, tolerance, mounting configuration, and lead spacing. The primary differences are elevated voltage rating (500V versus 100V) and temperature coefficient classification (X7R versus C0G/NP0), both of which represent enhanced or alternative specifications suitable for broader application ranges.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ACR06D103KGS Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient for minimal capacitance drift across temperature extremes
• Circuits with 100V maximum voltage requirements
• Space-constrained designs where the smaller physical footprint (0.100" width) is advantageous
• General-purpose applications with stable operating conditions

ARR07L103KGA Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring higher voltage margin with 500V rating
• Circuits where X7R temperature coefficient is acceptable
• Designs benefiting from enhanced voltage headroom for transient protection
• Applications where the slightly larger physical footprint (0.150" width) is not a constraint

Both parts maintain active production status with KEMET and share identical compliance classifications (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, ECCN EAR99). Selection between these parts depends on circuit voltage requirements and temperature stability specifications rather than availability or compliance factors.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ARR07L103KGA directly replace ACR06D103KGS in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible only when the circuit design accommodates the higher 500V voltage rating and X7R temperature coefficient. The X7R dielectric exhibits greater capacitance variation across temperature compared to C0G/NP0. Verify that the application circuit does not depend on the tight capacitance tolerance of C0G/NP0 across the full -55°C to 200°C operating range.

Q: What is the physical difference between these two parts?

A: Both parts share identical length (0.300" / 7.62mm) and lead spacing (0.200" / 5.08mm). The ARR07L103KGA is wider at 0.150" (3.81mm) compared to the ACR06D103KGS at 0.100" (2.54mm). This dimensional difference results from the higher voltage rating requiring thicker dielectric material.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences?

A: Both parts carry identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, and ECCN EAR99 classification. No regulatory advantage exists between the two options.

Q: When should C0G/NP0 be preferred over X7R?

A: C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient is preferred in precision timing circuits, resonant circuits, or applications where capacitance stability across temperature is critical to circuit performance. X7R is suitable for general filtering, coupling, and decoupling applications where moderate capacitance variation is acceptable.

Q: Can the substitute part be used in a 100V circuit?

A: Yes. The ARR07L103KGA 500V rating exceeds the 100V requirement, providing additional safety margin. The higher voltage rating does not negatively impact performance in lower-voltage applications.

Q: What inventory status should be considered?

A: ACR06D103KGS has 1154 units in stock, while ARR07L103KGA has 990 units available. Both parts are in active production and represent viable sourcing options.
